The property was warm, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. As mentioned previously, some of the furniture in the house did not match the furniture in the listing.

You for your wonderful review of our property Dorothy and so delighted to hear you had a very relaxing weekend away and it was a great location to all the amenities and attractions for you. Hopefully you can come and stay on your next visit. Look forward to welcoming you again.
We had a wonderful weekend stay at Casa Antica. The location is absolutely perfect with only a short stroll to the main street, cafes, shops, and restaurants, yet tucked away enough to feel quiet and relaxing. The property itself was clean and had the essentials required for our stay.

We enjoyed our two-night stay - the location is convenient, the beds were comfortable, and the home has charming old-world character. There were a few small issues, such as the dishwasher containing unwashed dishes, packet of prunes half opened in the cupboard, and one towel with a hole. As reviews have mentioned before the furniture wasn’t as shown in the photos, updated photo's would set a better expectation. A small touch like providing milk would be helpful. Overall, it was a pleasant stay and we appreciated the comfort, pricing and location of the home.

Thank you for your review. Housekeeping have been informed of the dishes and were not aware as the dishwasher was emptied and clean prior to your arrival. The previous guests were clean and tidy and unpacked the entire dishwasher upon exit . We run a cleaning solution after each exit. We saw no sign of prunes or any perishables in exit.
The furniture is the same only the covers change with the seasons as we put these in the washing the laundromat after each exit and sometimes we were rotate the colours that the furniture itself remains the same. We are happy to hear you found the house comfortable and your liking and that the location and price was suitable for you. Thank you for being our guest.
Position in Bowral. Beds super comfortable. Dining areas, inside and out. :)

The house was fine . Not exactly clean, we tried but could not get either of the TVs working , disappointing as we could not watch the carols as a family on Christmas Eve or Boxing Day cricket. Great location though and very close to Bowral centre .

Hi Sarah we’re really try our best to keep the house in pristine condition and our cleaners do an excellent job of this but due to high storms and high winds there could’ve been a little bit more exterior debris than usual and this can be out of our control we are subject to high winds often. Nonetheless our cleaners do the best they can given the time of year being Christmas and wanting to be with their families also. Great you found the location is perfect for those wanting to go to the town and explore Bowral. TV and Foxtel is a simple button on and off. It works for every other Guest we’ve had stay prior to you and after you and if you couldn’t get it working, I would’ve preferred a phone call and we would have been happy to send our housekeeping to come and activate it for you. Nonetheless, I’m sure you had a wonderful Christmas. The home was tidy. Showers were hot water and excellent working conditions and beautiful comfortable double ensemble beds.
5 minutes walk to town, clean and tidy rooms and well equipped kitchen

Thank you Dani for your review of my home I’m delighted to hear you had a pleasant stay and that it was a great location being close to everything. Weather cobwebs seem to come up very seldom being cold in the country keeps most things away. Our cleaners might of missed that due to our very high ceilings.
We will keep on top of that.
So delighted you enjoyed your stay and we hope you come back again
